• Inspector Gadget
• Captain N
• Strawberry Shortcake
• Sherlock Holmes in the 22nd Century
• Jayce and the Wheeled Warriors
• Super Mario Bros. and Legend of Zelda
• The Littles
...and more, admittedly a lot of it a lot crappier than these not necessarily awesome titles. But this is such a good idea that I imagine it'll be easy for Jaroo to get a much wider library, especially of the old stuff. I imagine we'll be able to watch things like He-Man and The Real Ghostbusters on there before too long, and then we'll really never be able to get anything done. And, with the nerds thus occupied, civilization will collapse, and we'll revert to a basic cannibal barbarian-type society. Looking forward to it!

Holy crap, Mona the Vampire, I was thinking about that show the other day. Great to see a site that actually works in Canada (And seems to have a lot of Canadian titles in its library, oddly enough).

Well EXCUUUSE ME PRINCESS.
Kaeli said:
Wow. I never realized that Gadget had a mustache in the pilot episode. I'm mildly scarred!
Aeon said:
Man, if only they had The Raccoons.
Mr. Sanders said:
you didn't look over this page did you Rob ?
It's got Mummy's Alive !! .... and Johnny Test.
Mr. Sanders said:
You can watch the pilot Inspector Gadget on Netflix, GIVE ME Mummies Alive !
Bill said:
Jayce and the Wheeled Warriors??? I'm SO there!
mojo said:

Ryan said:
I seriously almost crapped when I saw they had Pole Position!!! That is THE best 80's cartoon theme song bar none!
Brad said:
If only the links for Sigfried and Roy were working.
God-like beings called TITANS from a mystical place called ENDLAND have stolen the magic from the once-magical world known as SARMOTI. Except that now, the magic is gone. Stolen by the Titans. And only Siegfried and Roy can get it back.
I need to smoke some pot and watch this PRONTO.

Awesome, now I can torture my kids with The Littles!
Lo Pan said:
OMFG.... I just came. Which considering this is a post about a kids cartoon website probably isn't appropriate. But c'mon!!!!!
Gleeman said:
Unfortunate it seems to be only the first 5 episodes of most of the series though...hopefully that will improve.
Tater said:
Captain N! That's some madness right there, especially with the GREEN MegaMan
Count Crackula said:
redbeardrum, did you keep watching to see when Link looks down Zelda's nightgown and wolf whistles at her, making her turn away and cover herself like she's about to be gang-raped? Who the hell wrote this shit?
ZADL said:
Action Man? Seriously, there was one? I just thought he was the old guy on Venture Brothers who ran around screaming "Action" while shooting people left and right. If this cartoon falls even slightly short of that, then I'm going to be sad.
AzHawk said:
I just watched Cake...for all the wrong reasons. I'm hoping hell won't be so bad.
JOBSQUAD said:
No way, Beverly Hills Teens?!
I haven't seen that show since I was Knee-high
to a grasshopper!
Now I'm just HIGH!
demoncat said:
this proves even old cartoons that are evil and messed up like sigfried and roy and captian n. never die they just wind up on some new want to be hula wonder if m.a.s.k will wind up on that site someday
Admiral Dillhole said:
I kind of doubt that we'll see many other shows... most of these are from the old forgotten DiC library.

@Ryan
Pole Position was good, maybe even M.A.S.K. good, but nothing can compete with the Wheeled Warriors theme. Only cartoon song on my iPod.
dogimo said:
I need to read more carefully, I was way too psyched at the prospect of reverting to a basic cannibal-agrarian-type society.
Go go Gadget 'stache.

Ulysses 31? Gun that is a Lightsabre that is a Gun that is a Lightsabre...
massolit said:
i second (or third) the jayce comment. but what about "saber rider"? gayest title ever!
Bobyn said:
Sherlock Holmes in the 22nd Century?!?
YES!!! *happydance*
WadevsTheWorld said:
Some Sky Commanders or Mysterious Cities of Gold would be nice.
But I'll watch any crappy old kids cartoons.
Hubristic said:
Wow, I check TR everyady and am never compelled to comment, but this one did it. This site has Starcom on it. Starcom is the greatest forgotten cartoon of the 80s. It's toys had were great everything was MAGNETIC. Damn it all to hell, my geek is hanging out and I dont care. Now if they came up with that cartoon from nickelodeon when they were looking for the cities of gold, my girlfriend may dump me over my hidden geekdom. Must hide geekiness b4 she finds out!

I 4th the joy at seeing Jayce on there! Nobody ever knows what I'm talking about when I bring that show up. I must have been five when that thing was on, but I loved the hell out of it. Time to see if it holds up....
Zakutambah said:
Captain N?
Mummy's Alive?
Superhuman Samurai Cyber Squad?
...Whelp, there goes studying this week.
Zakutambah said:
Ah Syber-Squad (And I should kick myself for misspelling it up there) you are still as horrible as ever.
I loved that damn terrible Power Rangers rip off. Hell, I still have some of the action figures stashed round here somewhere.
Baltimoron said:
Wade-
"Mysterious Cities of Gold" is on Hulu right now. Warning: it doesn't age well. You may be better off with your memories of the series intact.

@THE PR0F3550R, that is great. But for those of us who live in Canada Hulu is completely useless....
THE PR0F3550R said:
@The Thriller
What's with Hulu in Canada? Is the government blocking it or is it a some kind of legal issue?
Dorkus Malorkus said:
I am sad because it is the ultra-crappy NEW version of Strawberry Shortcake! Why do they have to fuck with classic shows?!
avader said:
dammit no Galaxy High, been looking for that forever, but did the old pole position song , hey oh hey oh hey oh
Hubristic said:
@ Baltimoron.. Thanks for that info I've been trying to find out the name of that show for years. Every once in a while I'd get the song stuck in my head and it would kill me
MisterAggro said:
"Jaroo" is Cookiejar entertainment. Cookiejar bought out DiC a couple years ago. DIC was famous for buying out GIJOE series and producing cheaper cartoons. Remember GiJoe Operation DragonFire. From then on GIJOE was alot crappier thanks to DIC.
Fez said:
Hey it does have DREAMSTONE too!!!
Seem Jaroo focus on toon with unforgettable soundtrack..
